It is safe to say that Ban Francisco would not sufFer very much from the comparison, almost safe to predict, too, that the Eastern cities would suffer considerably. Tiie total real estate sales in this City for the year 1895 aggregate nearly $13,000,000— or over $1,000,000 a month. It is encour aging to note that this aggregate is made up rather of a large number of sina!! tnan a small number of bi«j sales. This proves an activity in the real estate market which betokens sound and lasting progress. There were some big transfers during the year — that is true, but there were the exceptions and by no means the rule. The largest deal of the year was in April, when Claus Spreckels paid $1520,000 for the property at the southwest corner of Taylor street and Golden Gate avenue. The next largest transfer of the year occurred in October, when Mr Hearst trained possession of the Nucleus block for $">50,000. Another large sale was that of the northeast corner of Stockton and Ellis streets to James D. Phelan for $502,000. £ome of the chief ! transfers of the year, together with the i monthly totals, are as follows: THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 28, 1895.

RELIGIOUS THOUGHT AND PROGRESS - An Epitome of Sermons of the Week Throughout Hlie Land. Edited by Will M. Clemens. Following-is a summary of the principal seituons recently delivered in the United States and Canada by the leading clergy men, priests, prelates, religious teachers and professors of the Christian faith. In every instance the full text has been care fully read and abbreviated : FOREIGNERS. The foreigner comes here and locates in our cities and his foreign idea endangers our laws, our schools Rtid our citizenship. — Rev. Dr. Dudley, Methodist, Dcs Moines, lowa. - TURKEY. The Turkish Government has forfeited its right to exist. and by common consent itought to be obliterated from the earth.— Rev. John L. Scudder, Jersey City, N. J. - TRUTH. Truth wins slowly, but it wins. All false men and false institutions and laise cities and false nations must get out of the way.— Dr. Egbert, St. Paul, Minn. HINDRANCES. It is not the degenerate in the slums who are draeginc down the standard of religion, but the great mass of so-called respectable people.— Rev. \V. J. w. Findley, Episcopalian, Boston, Muss. TWO PATH*. There was but one life to live, one death to die, one God to judge, one soul to save, one eternity to spend— either in everlasting bliss or torment— two paths, one of which all hu manity must choose.— Rev. If. I. Smith, Cath olic, Nashville, Tcnn. prounsx! The nihilism of Russia, the socialism of Germany, the communism ol .France and the labor leagues of England are permeated with pessimism and atheism. -Their cry is that the world is sad and bad, and continually waxing sadder and worse. — Rev. Xelsoa Miilard, Pres byterian, Albany, X. Y. DEFIANCE OF LAW. We in the North are horrified at the lynching in the South in defiance of law, but it is time that we were horritii-d ut the defiance <>f [aw by the liquor tralHc all ovCr the — Rev. J. \Y. Conley, Baptist, St. Paul, Minn. EDUCATION. I believe it incumbent upon the citizens of the twentieth century never to rest till Con gress shall enact laws compelling every child for seven years to be educated at State expense, and at the public scbooli and nowhere elite. — Rev. Claude Roboteau, Baptist, Jersey City, *s . J . FOOTBALL. Football is too good a sport to be spoiled by sports, who have lowered its standard of re spectability until it is the demoralization of men's brighter and 1 etter nature. Let football cease its mediocre scholarship and brutality and irreverence and gambling propensity.— Rev. G. L. Morrill, Dcuver, Colo. SELF-CONTROL. The unit of the Xation is the private citizen. The piety of the entire community is affected by the conduct of each. If we would become and continue to be • well-governed people we must first achieve ue great conquest- of our selves—learn seli-co trol.— Rev. B. T. Xoakcs, Episcopalian, Cleveland, O. MODERN SERMONS. Some of our modern sermons are a disgrace to the pulpit aud a buslesque upon preaching. Their (neology is bad; their literature is worse. | They have no oratorical charm, no intellectual power, no spiritual life. With such sermons nobody need wonder at empty t*ws and j sleepy nearers.— Rev. T. S. Cartwright, Episco palian, Brooklyn, N. Y. DESPOTISM. America has suffered from despotism, and, therefore, she has a right to hate all despots, and of all the despots that ever lived upon this earth ourjlde of the Orient, Spain has bern the Hardest, the most brutal, the most exacting, the most merciless and most godless. — Rev. J. A. Milburn, Presbyterian, Indianapolis, Ind. TIIE PRESS. The press is the world's university. It is the great educator of the age. It does" not neces sarily make scholars, and yet all learned men are great readers of the newspaper. Some of the greatest and brainiest men'of the century have been given us through t!>e inspiration of the press.— Rev. Robert Mclntyre, Methodist, Denver, Colo. TOTTEniXG THRONES. The kingdoms of the world are tottering and trembling upon their foundations. They real ize that the end is upon them, and they dare not move for fa r of precipitating the conflict. But they are compelled to move, and will soon | be gathered together to the battle of the Lord i God Almighty.— Elder W. H. Ebert, Seventh : Day Adventist, Elmwood, Ind. j PATIENCE. Virtue is learned by patience, and in our daily struggle in life the fac thatt we often f«il should only furnish good reason for more earnest, conscientious effort, with a determin ation to succeed. Patience not only marks the road of gcodncss for the soul, but it also marks the road of goodness for the world.— Rev. Paul : Van Dyke, Presbyterian, Northampton, Mass. HAPPINESS. No man is completely happy who is not a Christian. Some are happy ami. surround ings that would make others miserable. Hap- ! iiiness is contentment with surroundings. Some are supposed to be harpy in palaces with i great bands of servants, Others who control i men Bnd their opinions are called happy, and yet a native in Congo is as happy as they.— Rev. Lansing Burrows, Augusta, Ga." IGNORANCE. Ignorance is not the mother of devotion, but the mother of cruelty, superstition and crime. 1 One of Satan's most powerful auxiliaries is i ignorance. It was ignorance that put that . black place in history we call the dark ag^s; ; ignorance bathed the sword in blood on St. Bartholomew's night and killed men for witch- : craft in the New England States.— Rev. Dr. i Fishburn, Presbyterian, Columbus, Ohio. POETS. Some poets think that all. the themes for potts have been exhausted and that there is no room for poets in the future. It is not so. i Noble themes sre plenty and all that we need to do is to break the surface and scrape away the dust and mire and we. will find much tb portray in melody.— Rev. Dr. Loriiner, Baptist, Boston, Mas.-. OCP. COUNTRY. We are great geographically, great in climate, i great in wealth, great in undeveloped resources, ! in unparalleled possessions and in those ele- i ments which go to make up a great nation, as toe ' world reckons greatness. Our -poets, histori- I ans, writers, philosophers and professional ! men and women will compare most favorably i with any similar number of men and women • in any age of the world's btstory.— Rev. H. D. i Farrar, Baptist, Albany, N\ Y. DISTRUST. There is a tendency in the natural man, in the human mind, to forget God, to ig nore God, to criticise God, to doubt his wisdom, to question his love, to pull to pieces his revelation, to mend it for him, to re-create the Creator. In this case God is not trusted and 'here can be no gratitude. This distrust of God is far more prevalent than we imagine.— Rev. Charles B. Maaden, Metho- j dist, New Haven, Conn. PROGRESS. A social democracy is the broadest idea of i progress. It hunger and cold and ignorance! are necessary to make sympathy, I want every i man to be hungry and cold and ignorant. "I ' am going to insist that all the objects of social- j ism are within the reach of mar.. A man ! might as well try to te*ch an angel to fly with one wing as to attempt to improve society with ! philanthropy, without social legislation.— Rev. - F. W. Betts, Universalist, Syracuse, N. Y. CUBA. Our forefathers flung the tea overboard In i Boston harbor end fired the shot heard round the world at Concoril bridge, and yet the acts I of which they ccmrlamed were rs child's play j compared with ihat poor, suffering Cuba en- j dures. Taxed to the very limit ol endurance, • denied the right of self-government, she has in j her desperation armed herself as best she can and is to-day to'ghtiue until liberty comes or until the Cnhnus are dt:ad.— Rev. Dr. Strick- : land, Baptist, Sioux City, lowa. CNIVERSALISM. The "Universalists" in church polity have always been Congregationalists. In the matter of a tixed creed they seem all at sea. After a man has ■ affirmed his belief in the universal salvation' of the race he may believe about what he pleases. The central doctrine of Iniversalism is that punishment, here and ; hcreftfter, is corrective. That God in his mercy and love will at lßst Lring all men to himself". I Then the good will "be triumphant and I victorious forevermore.— lie v. J. B. Shepherd, I Congregationalist, Portland, Me. TEMPERANCE. The question of temperance is dear to the heart of the priest, mid therefore to the heart of Jesus Christ. How do the Catholic people stand on this question? If Catholics knew the teachings of the church and upheld the church in every particular, then we would be In a ! more solid position to do the work Christ lias Riven us. The question appeals to every Catho lic man, woman, girl and boy, because it bo comes us to show a good example of holy n-lipion to our weaker broiher.— Father P.F. O'ilare, Roman Catholic, Brooklyn, N. Y. PARDON. The abuse of the \ ardoning power is one of the striking facts in the history of human methods of dealing with crime. As commonly exercised, it he s been a serious evil, not oniy in Its direct effect in arbitrarily remitting pan ishnieii! which^both for the good of the evil doer and of society, shoMd be allowed to work its natural effect. bai in the expectation which is encouraged in the minds of those who plan the perpetration of crime, that even if con victed and sentenced they >vill be pardoned.— Rev. W-ni. I. Nichols, Unitarian, Philadelphia, Pd. SUNDAY OBSERVANCE. .The American Sunday should be regarded as a day of rest. The wheels >>: industry should be Closed, and the day >hould be spent in rest, recreation and prayer. Pleasure resorts should be closed, and all mankind should unite in oftVring op their heart- to (iod in praise and adoration. Every Catholic citizen thrxuglioui America should identify himself with the Americas San lay. We are called upon not to celebrate l.iv to o- po-e the celebration ol the European Bunday. All Catholics shonla vig orously oppose even the slightest Introduction of the foreign Sunday in America.— Rev. i ather MHrk, Catholic, Hoboken, N. J. MAKRIAGE ANt) DIVORCE. One of the greatest dangers which menace the home to-day aie the woetully lax views ..f the solemnity and importance of marriage vows and the circumstance < leading up 10 the consummation oi marriage een inontes, 'J'hese lax views, at the otitsct, endanger the ha pi d ■ of all the future. The easy means of'ob taining divorces at ihf pr. sent time is respon sible In a great mea>ure fox the ii^ht manner in which matrimony is locked upon. The In crease of divorces !<> the number i>f marriages is assuming alarming proportions, in this mater the Roman Catholic church lakes a s -:i •■! ground which i- worthy of emulation.— Rev. K. F. Holway, Worcester. Muss. SOCXAX REVOIATI"N. Ours is a crucial period of history. We are on the eve of great reveal menu and achieve ments, i-eneta! Bootb lately said that the twentieth century i:i all probability would usher in h world-wide revolution, for "the peo ple, the common people, were waking to real ize their power and to use it as veil M realize it. He is not alone in the belief that we are on the edge of a great political and social revolu tion. Men avlio study the racial problems of our day speak ol the impending revolutions as an assured tact It is possible that we are on the very eve of this process ot purification.— Rev. J. B. fcilcox, ConpregHtionalist,Chicago,lll. THE BIBLE. The Bible justilies its claim by what it has done for humanity and civilization and its translation ior foreign nations is like building a railway through tne heart oi the land, [t is a book that opened with creation and h:is iur nished mankind with the inspiration which lies saved humanity from barbarism and carries with it the precious gift ol immortality. Even skeptics are impressed with its glorious truths and acknowledge mat i;s missionaries are carrying forward the torch of civilization. When the catechisms of creeds are forgotten. the Bible stands forth for the saving and illumining of national life. It hns preserved our freedom and our nationality and the vic torious march of itibical Christianity will ever go forward.— Rev. Dr. Barrows, Congregation aiist, Chicago, ill. THE BIBLE. The Bible is not & literary unit It is a library written by many autliors whose labors stretch across fifteen centuries of time. It presents us, not with the links of * chain, but whh a llviuu record of a revelation that has progressed from rudiments in the full-orbed splendors of the Christian ace. Tl.e Bible has ever been the champion of the highest and purest moral and spiritual truth. It has brought to poor, sintul, suffering men the messages of love, and comfort and salvation. It speaks the language of the heart. It has touched chords that vibrato to nothing merely human or earthly. It has won the greatest encomiums of the great and the holy of ;he earth. It has reformed savage tribes and led the civilizations of the proudest nati.ms.— Rev. E. S. Lewis, Methodist, Cleveland, Ohio. UNITY. Color, wealth and social standing are not a true mnrk of distinction between men, because neither of these is the man. Soul is man: therefore, the true difference is seen in soul worth, moral worth, Christian worth Ot God.— Rev. s 5 . B. Jones, African Methodist, St. Paul, Minn. GMF..VTNKSS. A great man Is one who by revelation of cis greatness in noble cervices wins our praise and then becomes our ideal. If he abides in great doing And great being he is certain to become the ideal of true men and women. The theory of greatness is becoming and serving. The hc-athen idea of greatness was place, wealth, power. Jesu- explained that to Ms disciples, called their attent. on to it and said, "But if any among you would be great* it, let him serve.'— Rev. J. P. Egbert, Presby terian, St. Paul, Minn. HELL. In # hell God makes one's soul the seat of punishment, l»is memory which recalls all the moments misspent on earth; all the hours which he spent in treasuring pp to himself wrt»th against the day of wrath ami revelation of the nexi judgment of God; it: his vi.l, which withdrew tram the love of God into an un compromising opposition to him, which he rilled w Hh ari implacable hatred toward him and his intellect in appreciating the little varieties ot this world to the great things of tne next.— Rev, Father Pomero, Roman Cattio lic, Columbia, S. C. ATHLETICS. If health, strength, beauty, self-control, good temper, invigoration for greater duties, are the end of physical culture, or athletics, then man ifestly croken noses, dislocated shoulders, sprained ankles and cracked skulls are the re sult of the abuse of athletics. If successful baseball and football players in our colleges are not successful student's, and if, as the Har vard captain confessed, it must ba so on ac count oi the demands of the game as against the demands of the curriculiirnT then the game ceases to be a means to the high end of college training.— Rev. Frank M. Bristol, Methodist, Evanston, 111. i IIIIDREN AT CHURCH. The present generation of young people has had a training very different from that which their grandparents or even their parents re ceived. In most families the rod, like Aaron's rod, has budded and brought fortn almonds, and sugar-plums of all sort*. Children are hied and coaxed instead of being commanded and required, and they have therefore grown up to consult inclination rather '.nan obiiga tion x Attending churches Is not now consid ered a sacred duty. People go if they feel like it. and for a great variely of reason's they do not feel like it.— Rev. \\. T. Veale, Presbyte rian, Jacksonville. Fla. HOTEL ASEIVALS. GRAND HOTFL.
